Rule 5 Named Outstanding Small Consultancy

The agency has been crowned Outstanding Small Consultancy of the Year at the 2016 PRCA DARE Awards.

The hotly contested category is open to any consultancy with up to 10 members of staff and this year six agencies were shortlisted. Financial performance, staff and client retention/acquisition, innovation and creativity are just some of the pillars on which the category is judged.

Adding to the evening’s success, the agency’s founding partner Rob Brown was named Industry Leader of the Year. The award is in recognition of Rob’s significant contribution to the industry and Rule 5. Speaking on the wins the agency’s founding director Julie Wilson said: “Since the launch of Rule 5 in November 2012 our ambition has been to build the very best team we can and deliver consistently exceptional work. We’re thrilled to see this recognised by one of the UK’s leading governing bodies as well as our industry peers.”

Founding partner, Rob Brown, added: “We’ve been going for a little over three years, so we are thrilled that we’ve made the journey from start-up to recognition as an outstanding agency in a fairly short time, the personal gong was a bonus.”

The PRCA DARE Awards recognise the very best Communications and PR professionals across the UK and are judged by a panel of respected industry experts.
